REGISTERED SEED POTATO PRICES REDUCTION OF RURAL HYDRO RATES A further rate reduction to all rural hydro consumers on the first block of energy from 4c to 3.5c per kilowatt hours, effective on all bills rendered on and after May 1st, 1945, will result in an estimated saving of $300,000 year. This was announced by Hon. George H. Challies, vice-chairman of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of of Ontario last week. The rate reduction was a result of a stimulated program of new services inaugurated during the past year. Uniform rates for electrical service to rural areas were introduced by the Commission on January 1, 1944, bringing substantial benefits to 97 per cent of all farm and hamlet consumers served by the Commission, and resulting in an estimated saving of $500,000. The new energy rate of 3.5c on the first block, with second and third rates remaining unchanged, will be a substantial saving shared by all rural hydro consumers, Mr. Challies stated.

"to turn a dollar" with profit There are many times when a farmer needs "extra money"; Without a reserve fund he must either sell something "for what he can get for it" or borrow, if he can get a loan; Victory Bonds provide a safe and convenient form in which to keep savings until needed. Victory Bonds earn double bank interest. When you have Victory Bonds you can get a loan from any bank at any time without any formality, and the interest the bonds earn pays a large part of the interest on the loan. Victory Bonds can be bought for cash which you have saved or bought on convenient deferred payments with money as you get it: Buy Victory Bonds to provide a reserve of working capital for your farm.
